Pin Position?

What is Pin Position?

All bowling balls have different pin distances out from the CG and various top weights. Usually your pro shop professional will decide what specifics he wants based on your span, relative to where he wants to place the pin and cg and if he wants to use a balance hole. These specifics aren’t necessary for the consumers to choose, but we allow you to pick what you want and we fill all orders exact or as close as possible based on availability.

Pin Position – The pin distance describes how far the pin and the cg are apart. A pin-in ball is where the pin and cg are any where from 0-1” apart. A pin-out ball is where the pin and cg are any where from 1” + apart.

Example #1: Balls with a 0-1” pin will get the ball into a slightly earlier roll with slightly less flare potential.

Example #2: Balls with a 3-4” pin out will give the ball slightly more length and more flare potential than the ball in example 1.

Top Weight?

What is Top Weight?

Top Weight – The amount of imbalance placed in the bowling ball to offset the removal of weight from the gripping holes. Average top weight ranges from 2-4 oz.

Example #1: Balls with 2 oz or less top weight will get the ball into a slightly earlier roll.

Example #2 Balls with 2 oz or more top weight will give the ball slightly more length than the ball in example 1.

Surface Adjustment?

This feature allows you to choose a different Abralon finish on your new ball. You can choose 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 grit Abralon and this will be done by the Storm Surface Factory Machine we have in Connecticut. By choosing this option, your order can be delayed if we do not have specs requested on the premises.

Length:42F
Type (THS, Sport Pattern etc):SECOND SHIFT HOUSE SHOT
Likes: THE IS SIMPLY VERY VERY CLEAN IN THE FRONT PART OF THE LANE AND HOOKS A TON IN THE BACK. FLIPS MORE THEN I THOUGHT BUT IN A GOOD WAY. WORKS GREAT FOR MYSELF ON SECOND SHIFT OIL. DIDNT PLAY AROUND TO MUCH ON FRESH BUT WHEN I HAD THE CHANCE IT IS A GREAT BALL TO START WITH. LOVE IT ON DRY. SUPER SUPER SMOOTH AND STRONGER THEN IT LOOKS.
Dislikes: WAITED TO LONG TO GET ONE.

This ball combines a rich history and a consistent roll/carry through the pins. I was skeptical to think this ball was going to be as special as it has turned out to be. For the stronger more advanced players, this ball typifies control on the most demanding lane conditions. For those bowlers that want a step up from an introductory reactive resin, this is the best option in my opinion. With the LT-48 being the first ball in Brunswick Vintage Series, they have certainly set the bar high for their next release. Was this comment helpful?

I have bowled 3 league sessions and a few tournament games with this ball and I am really impressed.
My league shot is a med/light oil condition and this ball always gets down the lane without extra effort on my part.
Despite its "vintage" tag, mine hooks a fair amount on the backend, but the hook is very controlled and smooth.
I have had many people watch the ball reaction and ask me about it.
If you need a very smooth, symmetrical ball for lighter conditions, I would highly recommend this piece. It is a fantastic value at its price pointWas this comment helpful?

For the price this is a great ball. I gave this 3/5 simply as the ball is not very versatile. On short oil patterns or lighter oil volume conditions this ball is the best, hands down. However if any chance of carry down or even a med-heavy oil the ball will skate to the pins. I adjusted mine with a 1000 grit and rolls fairly well now.
I would recommend this ball to folks looking for a tournament ball for lighter oil patterns or bowlers looking for something a little more smoother on the lanes.Was this comment helpful?
